Re: High Memory Usage 2.53.3 64 bit
I'm afraid I don't know the answer to either of your questions. The one I am using is: Restart Application Button 53.0 By Baris Derin Restart Application Button lets you restart your Firefox and SeaMonkey application by a quick toolbar button click. This is in my list of extensions and it should be easy to find it and try it for your problems. Dave > Ant wrote: > Ah. I wonder what command it is using to tell it to automatically > relaunch.

Re: High Memory Usage 2.53.3 64 bit
Ah. I wonder what command it is using to tell it to automatically relaunch. Does it work when SM is stuck and automatically tell its startup's prompt to force exit the stuckage and relaunch? I get those once in a while with seamonkey.exe process stuck even though I quit SM earlier. On 9/17/2020 4:56 AM, David H.
